lockf.3: ERRORS: add EINTR 

Ian Turner: The exact return calls are at the discretion of the
underlying VFS, but I'm pretty sure that EINTR is a possibility.
Or, if it's not, then the flock() manpage should be amended
accordingly, since the two share the same underlying
implementation.

mtk: lockf(3) is implemented on top of fcntl() locking, so
EINTR is of course a possibility.
